Line2 Phone App Gets Even Better - Pogue's Posts Blog - NYTimes.com

Hmm…

Best of all, Apple made iOS4 multitasking. So now Line2 does not have to be open when calls come in. Even if your phone is asleep, it rings normally when someone dials your Line2 number. You tap either Answer or Voicemail. If you’re in a hot spot, the call automatically comes in over Wi-Fi, so you don’t use any AT&T minutes at all.

The company says that later this summer, yet another upgrade will let you send and receive text messages in the United States from your Line2 number—no extra charge. (International text messages are 10 cents each.)
